The LSU vs. USC game that is….the Tigers rushed to a 28-16 victory over 12th-ranked USC behind a ground assault that rolled up 290 yards on a rainy afternoon before the fourth-largest crowd in the history of Tiger Stadium. By comparison, USC (3-1, 1-1 in the Southeastern Conference) had just 17 yards rushing on 27 carries, its worst showing since being held to no net yards in a 33-7 loss to LSU on Oct. 18, 2003.
It was not a pretty game from rain and mud to bad plays and dropped passes. Jasper, Captain and Cook get hurt; not to mention Mitchell gets benched. I agree with Spurrier on this issue…Mitchell just is not producing; seems he is the ‘Senior’ that does not care and just wants the whole thing to be over. I welcome Smelley and hopes he can get it together b/c our offense looked horrible and MSU is not going to be that easy (they beat Auburn).
